environmental awareness and sustainability

The practices associated with aviation have increased consistently in the previous century, hence showing a strong growth rate in comparison to the rest of the travelling modes. For instance, the mobility offered by the American air transportation system has experienced a six-fold expansion in the previous 35 years as noted by Adler and Gellman (2012). The main reason is that, the airports offer the best way in which passengers and goods can be transported to any destination in the world(Fan et al.,2011). For this reason, Koç and Durmaz (2015) claim that airline enhance the prosperity of its customers and create job opportunities, promote businesses and tourism activities which enhance cross-cultural understanding. Moreover, the high demand for airline services has contributed to the fast growth of the aviation sector.
